ChristopherOlson 96793a3ae7 AP_Motors:TradHeli - DDVP Ramp/Runup
Change to ramp and runup DDVP tail rotor to prevent torque pitching the frame and provide runup in sync with main
rotor like a mechanically driven tail.

Fix some comments and remove indents found in whitespace in AP_MotorsHeli.cpp and AP_MotorsHeli.h

Andrew Tridgell e340fac2e0 AP_Motors: avoid float exception for small expo
very small values of the thrust expo cause a floating point
exception. As zero is a documented value meaning linear we need to
handle this.

Andrew Tridgell c8b6be6736 AP_Motors: fixed scaling of servo outputs
thanks to bnsgeyer for noicing this in issue #6977

this will break existing dual-heli setups, but there are so few people
flying them so far that I think it is a worthwhile change

Andrew Tridgell bdc4320fe8 AP_Motors: added MOT_BOOST_SCALE
this is to support boost motors for copters, such as having a petrol
motor for extra lift on a multicopter

The scaling factor allows the user to control how much of the lift is
generated from the booster and how much from the main multicopter
motors
